Fred Apelquist is New Small Group Ministry Leader
Fred Apelquist has agreed to fill Scott Reiter’s place as the interim coordinator for small group ministries at Epiphany. Before his death, Scott served our church in many ways, and we are going to continue to greatly miss him and his leadership. That said, I am grateful to Fred for being willing to pick up this work for the rest of the year. Fred has served effectively as our small group coordinator in the past, and firmly believes in this ministry. So, if you’re a small group leader and need help finding a good curriculum, talk with Fred. If you’re interested in Epiphany’s many small group ministries, also talk with Fred.
